Clearwater Lake Rec Area

Clean campsites, well-spaced, bathrooms are good.

The facilities and staff are top notch. The bathroom was clean all the time and having an area to clean dishes is great. Even when the campground was packed the noise level was minimum and everyone was acting in a civilized manner in their respective campsites. The staff was visible and always helpful. At night time the staff did security rounds and the main gate was closed at night time to avoid intruders to be in the facilities during sleeping hours. Even when the prices to use the facilities increased it is worth each penny since it provided quality camping experience.

Clearwater Lake was a great campsite! We went as a family over a 4 day weekend. We had campsite 6 in Loop A/1. It was surprisingly spacious.
The camp hosts were kind and helpful. They brought the firewood we bought to our campsite for us. They also checked in before and after a big storm rolled through.
The bathroom facilities always had toilet paper and were clean. The showers were extra hot and nice to use.
A bonus we didn't expect: a dishwashing station! Between the bathrooms was a small room with a sink where you could use hot water and wash your dishes.
The beach area is smaller than we anticipated, and dogs are not allowed on the beach. We didn't spend time there because it was too cold, but we also didn't have anywhere to leave our dog safely.
Overall, it was a great weekend, and we would come back!

Beautiful place! We went as a group. We have a club in our church ( Adventurer Club) and we visited the Clearwater lake recreation park because we needed a special place for the kiddos. We stayed there from March 11 to 13 this year. They had a lot of fun. This is a small and quiet place, not far from Orlando. You can do many activities ( hiking, swimming in the lake, kayaking, etc)
Staff are very friendly. We will plan another camping at this place.

Overall, the facility was very good. I wish there was something in the description of this particular tent site could easily have a large amount of water coming through during a thunder storm.

Our spacious, shady campsite was great. There were a couple of RVers who ran generators periodically, but everyone was respectful of quiet hours. It is good to see more people using portable solar arrays to recharge their devices.
The campground hosts were friendly and helpful, and the grounds and restrooms were exceptionally clean.
It was so nice to hike a few miles on the FT and to imagine a world where everyone can enjoy the beauty of their surroundings in peace. The presence of pileated, downy, red-bellied, and even red-headed(!) woodpeckers was a treat for this urban gal.

An excellent camping experience! Absolutely gorgeous setting right by a lake, clean bathroom facilities, and some nice nature trails. We were particularly impressed with the fire pits because they were better set up for cooking than previous ones we've used. The cooking grate swivels to the side rather than up and down, so you can simply swivel food out of the fire to let it cool, or work with it. We will definitely be back!

Beautiful campsites, friendly staff, but couldn't enjoy it because of the ticks. I have never seen anyplace so badly infested with ticks.

Great camp hosts, clean bathrooms, beautiful location

Campsites are great but couldn't go 10 minutes without pulling ticks off. Staff very friendly and helpful. I will not camp there again because the ticks were so bad.
